Journal ArticleDOI
Tetraether membrane lipid distributions in water-column particulate matter and sediments: a study of 47 European lakes along a north-south transect
TL;DR: In this paper, the distribution of glycerol dialkyl glyceroline tetraethers (GDGTs) in water column particulate matter and the top 5 cm of sediment from 47 lakes along a transect from southern Italy to the northern part of Scandinavia was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Branched glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers in lake sediments: can they be used as temperature and pH proxies?
Cornelia I. Blaga,Gert-Jan Reichart,Stefan Schouten,André F. Lotter,Josef P. Werne,Sarian Kosten,Néstor Mazzeo,Gissell Lacerot,Gissell Lacerot,Jaap S. Sinninghe Damsté +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a series of surface sediments from 82 lakes of variable water depth and size was analyzed for glycerol dialkyl (GDGTs) in order to investigate the potential of the MBT/CBT (methylation ratio/cyclization ratio of branched tetraethers) as a continental palaeothermometer in lacustrine environments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seasonal changes in glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraether concentrations and fluxes in a perialpine lake: Implications for the use of the TEX86 and BIT proxies
Cornelia I. Blaga,Gert-Jan Reichart,Elisabeth W. Vissers,André F. Lotter,Flavio S. Anselmetti,Jaap S. Sinninghe Damsté +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors collected descending particles in Lake Lucerne (Switzerland) using two sediment traps (at 42 and 72 m water depth) with a monthly resolution from January 2008 to late March 2009.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seasonal and vertical distribution of putative ammonia-oxidizing thaumarchaeotal communities in an oligotrophic lake
Elisabeth W. Vissers,Cornelia I. Blaga,Paul L. E. Bodelier,Gerard Muyzer,Christa Schleper,J.S. Sinninghe Damsté,Maria Tourna,Hendrikus J. Laanbroek +7 more
TL;DR: The ecology of Thaumarchaeota, with their potential in nitrogen cycling, may differ per water depth in deep freshwater ecosystems, as indicated by the results of a seasonal and vertical study of deep oligotrophic Lake Lucerne, Switzerland.
Journal ArticleDOI
A TEX86 lake record suggests simultaneous shifts in temperature in Central Europe and Greenland during the last deglaciation
Cornelia I. Blaga,Gert-Jan Reichart,André F. Lotter,Flavio S. Anselmetti,Flavio S. Anselmetti,Jaap S. Sinninghe Damsté +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the first decadal resolution record of continental temperatures in Central Europe during the last deglaciation (similar to 14,60010,600cal.B.P.) based on the organic geochemical palaeothermometer TEX86 was presented.
